Author Message   Bald_bueller Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 10:58 pm:        OK long story short i bought a very low mileage 1999 carbon edition x1 (3349 miles to be exact) for 3500 usd. The bike is bone stock except for a K&N filter. The guy who owned the bike was scared of it that is why i got it so cheap. Well i have been logging a few miles on it today....first time to ride a buell.....have owned and still own several harley's and a few japanese rides of various shades of red and green.... But this buell....OMG it has been love at first ride.....this thing makes gobs and gobs of low end torque and sounds wicked.....its a 9 year old bike and i still get people pulling along side me wondering what the hell it is..... AM I CRAZY OR IS THIS NORMAL?????   Standingdeadwood Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 11:06 pm:        Normal. My son (XB12R) and I (2001, X1) went on a charity ride last weekend. Our Buells got more attention than any other bikes. Nothing special, both bikes are near stock. It's like the Harley guys want one but are afraid of what their friends will say! Different in every way!   Firebolt020283 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 11:07 pm:        its normal every one gets that   Dfbutler Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 11:34 pm:        The hardest thing about riding a Buell is getting the smile off your face!   Bald_bueller Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 11:43 pm:        only issue i have with the bike is the crappy mounting system for the two black side fairings...thinking of putting them in the closet and getting a hypercharger.....or something..... uploading pictures now...will post in a minute   Bald_bueller Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 11:48 pm:        1 2 3 4   Bald_bueller Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 11:51 pm:        have a scorpion carbon fiber slip on being delivered tomorrow and my emcspy cable should be here tomorrow or wed. I love my sportster dont get me wrong but i like the effect the buell has on people more....hope my 2006 xlc1200 sportster does not get jealous.....   Bald_bueller Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 11:57 pm:        slip on   Limitedx1 Posted on Tuesday, September 16, 2008 - 08:14 am:        bet your wonderin how to make the xlc run like the x1! hahahaha   S2tbolt Posted on Tuesday, September 16, 2008 - 10:39 pm:        Love the Carbon X1 ! Welcome to the fever bro!   Jespo_m2 Posted on Wednesday, September 17, 2008 - 09:17 am:        Very Nice Bike!! Not many left of the CF series... not many made either. You got a great deal and will never loose on it if you deside to sell the sportster... ahhh... I mean Buell. These bikes have so much personality... it's tough to not have one... believe me.. I tried. The prices are so good that you may end up with 2 at some point. Armorall shines up the CF and plastics real nice. Try not to get it on the seat though.   Old_mil Posted on Wednesday, September 17, 2008 - 09:48 am:        Very nice x1...now all you need is one of those Corbin Gunfighter/Lady seats in carbon fiber to match the bike!
